Like I said before, I think you need at least another 20 hp, 20 torque throughout the power band to be in the ball park with the b6 S4, and the 07 G sedan. No offense, but If I sound skeptical it's because I am.

In my 05 MT coupe, 2nd and 3rd gear do ok against the Audi, but I really have to be on my game. When going into 4rth the S4 walks away. When I had my M-Rev2, I gained about 12hp, 15 torque. I seemed to get walked worse in 4rth, as I lost some top end hp. Also in (my experience anyway) I am able to walk 03-04 DE's. Perhaps they were auto's though.

Anyway.. let me know what mods you got, cause If it gives that kind of performance I'll copy you before I get my turbo. Seriously.

My mods are miniscule. Intake/Exhaust/Z tube, and that's about it. For some reason my G is really strong though. I can't explain it for the life of me. I have ran a few stock E46 M3's that I was able to hang even with too.

The race btwn my pops and I was really impromptu. It was late at night on the 5S and we were both crusing along at about 70ish. He called me on my cell and was like lets see if your coupe can hang with me. I downshifted to 3rd and punched it slightly after he did. The whole time up till 130 -140 ish I was glued to his bumper. That's why I said he could not pull on me. There would have been no way I could of passed him though.

Like I said I can't explain the results.
